I am in Cancun Mexico on my own, doing the 14 days needed to go on the US Tour 2021 in September, due to the US Covid-19 rules. As I get the news about Charlie passing today, I get so sad. The Rolling Stones are my other family. I spend 25% or more of my life on The Rolling Stones. I used to call myself Charlie when I became a Stones fan exactly 50 years ago this month, back in August 1971, because I used to be a drummer myself, and because Charlie was so cool. Now I realize the last show with Charlie was in Miami August 30, 2019. So sad. So sad.

One question for you or anyone -- the Sun quoted an unnamed insider as saying that things took an unexpected turn (for the worse). How reliable is the Sun as a newspaper?

I read it here, I read lots of posts, I read it in the papers, I hear it in the news, saw reports on TV - but I still cannot believe it. Very strange feeling.

I'm not sure whether it's appropriate or maybe self centred to cry on the passing of someone you didn't know...but for me the tears came on waking this morning.

I didn't shed a tear, but like with George Harrison's passing, I felt like I could cry. I haven't shed a tear since the unexpected and sudden death of my father; the person whose record collection introduced me to Charlie, in fact.
